Chelsea chair Todd Boehly is still fully behind under-fire boss Graham Potter after stepping down as interim sporting director, according to reports.
News of Boehly's decision to stand down from his temporary position emerged on Monday. It did not come as a surprise, as Boehly has spent the last few months appointing a new recruitment team - fronted by technical director Christopher Vivell.
Boehly is facing calls to sack Potter after a dismal start to his Chelsea career. Potter has won just eight of his first 18 games in charge - boasting the worst win percentage of any permanent Blues manager since Glenn Hoddle, who left the club nearly 17 years ago.
